Doc Rivers has been Named the President of Basketball Operations for the Los Angeles Clippers

Los Angeles Clippers head coach Doc Rivers has taken on a new role. The Los Angeles Clippers have announced that Doc Rivers will be the new President of Basketball Operations. With so much surrounding the Clippers over the last 3 months as they dealt with the racist comments of current Clippers owner Donald Sterling, this is something positive that Clips fans can smile about.

According to the Los Angeles Clippers:

Longtime Rivers assistant Kevin Eastman will become the Clippers’ vice president of basketball operations, reporting to Rivers and supervising the franchise’s basketball dealings.

Pro scouting director Dave Wohl was named the Clippers’ general manager, and former GM Gary Sacks was demoted to assistant general manager.
